4.
Come up with words,
phrases, and illustrations to
describe what a student
would look like if they
possessed each of the four
skill sets. Write these
descriptions on items of
clothing so the learner could
be “dressed for success” in
the 21st Century.

9.
Beginning Note taking
Students observe or read information on a
topic and then draw what they have learned.
Using only pictures they can not copy out of
the book.

10.
Note taking continued
• Develop a set of questions
that require short one or
two word answers.
Students then read through
books, magazines, or
internet sites provided by
the teacher to find and
record the answers to
each question.

11.
Next step. . .
• Putting it altogether in an
easy to use format. I use

Steps to Taking Notefacts
• Each resource you use will have its own number. Put that number in
the large magnifying glass and on all the small magnifying glasses
next to each notefact.
• Record the required information for your bibliography on the solid
lines (Manual pp. 50-51).
• Notefacts are short (note) and true (fact).
• Notefacts should be:
 Written in your own words
 Short but complete enough to make sense
 Related to your goal-setting questions
 Written between the dotted lines – one notefact per space
 Documented by page number

HOPI
• Descendents of the Anasazi culture,
the Hopi people live on the Mesa
areas of Northeastern Arizona. Their
reservation land is completely
surrounded by the large Navajo
reservation – the only Indian nation
surrounded by another.
• They live much like their industrious
ancestors… the villages resembling
the pueblos of the past, farming their
fields of corn, squash, beans, and
melons nearby.
• Hopi baskets, both coiled and wicker,
depicting the most simple designs to
the most intricate forms of animals
and Kachinas, are considered to be
some of the finest woven anywhere
today.

Heritage of the Southwest.
